thats what i was thinking but i'm not a gm either so.....Makes perfect sense... cuz the Cleveland O-line is much better than Houston...
thank CN
It doesn't really matter what Houston does. They're gonna suck. That team should be either eliminated or forced to change ownership at the very least. They're just dumb.
My guess is Landry guys a beast. Thats who i would put my money on.Disregarding the question as to whether Carr is worth it or not, who could Cleveland be targeting at 8? Gaines, Okoye, Brown?
I think they would be targeting Branch, possibly Brown.Disregarding the question as to whether Carr is worth it or not, who could Cleveland be targeting at 8? Gaines, Okoye, Brown?
I would say Brown, they just need help on the o-line.I actually think this is a good trade for both teams and I think Carr will be good.He is still way to young to give up on.I think they would be targeting Branch, possibly Brown.Disregarding the question as to whether Carr is worth it or not, who could Cleveland be targeting at 8?

Whether it is a good trade or not, Carr has way more "potential" than Frye. I'm a browns fan and wanted to root for Frye in the hardest way, but he simply isn't the answer... Brownies need serious help on both offensive and defensive lines, so either Branch/Brown would make sense.I would say Brown, they just need help on the o-line.I actually think this is a good trade for both teams and I think Carr will be good.He is still way to young to give up on.I think they would be targeting Branch, possibly Brown.Disregarding the question as to whether Carr is worth it or not, who could Cleveland be targeting at 8?

That's dumb for the Texans. You need that high 2nd rounder in the worst way.I'd rather have the 1.8, 2.8 and David Carr (even if I'm going to cut him) than the 1.3 alone.
Not likely.
true
The Browns are supposed to learn the Texans' lesson? Since when Brady Quinn = Vince Young?The Brown could not be considering Brady Quinn at all.
I was trying to figure out earlier what it would take for the Viking to move up to #3 for Calvin Johnson. They would have to give up their entire first day picks. Childress could go up to the podium and say "Vikings pick Calvin Johnson. See you guys tomorrow"
At least that would save me the horror of seeing them trade up for a 1-AA prospect/project again.I was trying to figure out earlier what it would take for the Viking to move up to #3 for Calvin Johnson.

Especially when you consider other reports about what the Texas are looking for.http://www.nola.com/saints/t-p/index.ssf?/...&thispage=2
http://www.twincities.com/mld/pioneerpress/16693302.htmIf these reports are anywhere close to accurate and the Texans only want a mid-level pick for Carr, it is quite unlikely that the Browns are so out of touch with the market on Carr that they would consider giving all that up.
If the Titans can get two CBs and a DE in Free Agency, I'd gladly give up all 9 picks for Calvin Johnson.I was trying to figure out earlier what it would take for the Viking to move up to #3 for Calvin Johnson.

Very possible, and if so, fine. And if they would rather have Peterson than Quinn, I can understand that as well.But is David Carr enough to take you out of the race for Peterson, Quinn, and Johnson? Yeeesh, I don't think so. If I was a Browns fan, and had Frye and Droughns, and the number 3 pick, I'd want one of those three.
No way the Browns take a QB in the 1st round.Crennel is on his last shot and if they take a QB, they may as well cut Crennel loose now.
I was thinking aobut that as well, but Crennel doesn't have final say on personnel, correct?
Agree. Getting Carr, then getting Branch at the 1.08, then using the 2.03 on O-line (like Kalil) and the 2.08 again on O-line (like Ugoh, Staley, or even Blalock if he slips) would be a draft day A+ for the Browns IMO.
This trade makes a ton of sense for Cleveland. As you pointed out, Lynch may still be available. Also, there will likely be an excellent DE (Anderson or Adams), an excellent DT/NT (Branch, Okoye), an excellent safety (Landry), an excellent CB (Hall) and a top grade RB (Lynch). I'm not sure it makes much sense for Houston though.
Carr = 300 was just a guess. It's just wild speculation anyways - so change it anyway you like.
Adrian Peterson or Calvin Johnson.
You would think it would have to be one of those 2.
Are you thinking? Johnson & Johnson. CBs are sweating bullets just thinking about it.
Especially since they may have Jeff Garcia or Sage Rosenfels throwing it to them....
I'm thinking it's Peterson, to appease last year's Bush fiasco.
I would be surprised if they made that consider how shallow of a team they have, but peterson, Joe thomas, ot Calvin Johnson would all make sense.
This is the second time this has been mentioned.Does anyone actually believe that the Texans are going to trade UP to grab AD as some kind of way to rectify last year's draft pick? I think that's rather ridiculous. Despite the opinion on this board (mine included) and the talking heads, you can't even be sure if the Texans internally think that they made a mistake - I don't think they thought Bush wasn't going to be a very good player, I think they decided that having a dominating pass rusher was more important than a game-breaking RB. Taking a long view of Mario Williams, he COULD still be that. Anyway, the concept of them trying to make up for last year's pick by trading away early picks this year to move up to get an entirely different RB is a lapse in logic, IMO. I don't think that factors into their decision-making process one bit,
If the Raiders take Johnson, it could conceivably be for Russell.Really, this trade is stupid from the Texans standpoint.
Yep.
The Browns are all over the place right now on trying to read. Just a few weeks ago they were letting slip comments that they were interested in either Russell OR Quinn. Last week they seemed to be stating they wanted Peterson.They need to fix that offensive line though, that's their main problem. Fix that and Frye and Droughns will look a heck of a lot better.
I don't know how they will draft both Brown and Quinn.
